Petition for the Investigation and Removal of Guardian Ad Litem Sidney Dolquist

We, the undersigned parents, families, and concerned citizens, call for an immediate investigation into the actions and conduct of Guardian Ad Litem Sidney Dolquist, whose bias, misconduct, and mental health discrimination have harmed families, unfairly influenced custody decisions, and failed to serve the best interests of children.

Pattern of Bias and Unethical Behavior

Sidney Dolquist has demonstrated a consistent pattern of:

• Bias against certain parents—favoring one party regardless of evidence.

• Mental health shaming—discrediting parents solely based on prescribed medications rather than their actual parenting ability.

• Ignoring evidence of compliance—continuing to punish parents even after they have completed all required steps.

• Lack of proper qualifications—making medical and psychological judgments despite not being a mental health professional.

The Impact on Families

Her actions have led to wrongful custody decisions, prolonged legal battles, emotional trauma for parents and children, and unjustified financial burdens. Parents who have complied with all requirements still face baseless accusations and ongoing punishment due to her personal bias, rather than objective assessments.

Our Demand for Accountability and Reform

We demand the following:

1. An immediate independent investigation into Sidney Dolquist’s conduct in family court cases.

2. A review of cases she has handled to identify potential injustices and ensure fair outcomes.

3. Stronger oversight and accountability for guardians ad litem to prevent bias and misconduct.

4. A formal complaint process that allows parents to report GAL misconduct without fear of retaliation.

Sign this petition to protect families from unjust decisions and demand accountability for those entrusted with children’s futures.
